Configuring a dial terminator

In areas where variable-length numbers are used, you can specify a character as the dial terminator so that the voice gateway can dial out the number before the dialing interval expires. The dial terminator identifies the end of a dialing process, and a call connection will be established based on the received digits when the dial terminator is received. The voice gateway will not wait for further digits even if the longest match mode has been globally configured.

To configure a dial terminator:

terminator character

Optional.

By default, no dial terminator is configured.

If you set the argument character to # or *, and if the first character of the configured entity number is the same as the argument character (# or *), the device will take this first character as a common number rather than a dial terminator.
